    That is because you don't have a problem.

    Tell me about college professors who only have a high school education.
    You don't need government healthcare because your employer pays.
    What is the name of the college where you teach?
    Small governments don't necessarily fear the people.

    I said no such thing. The poor should pay like anyone else. If you want
    something pay for it. If no don't expect someone else to pay it for you.

    We don't need the government to screw up the best healthcare in the world.

    Less government good.
    More government bad.

    Sorry if I misquoted you. Your claim that we have the "best healthcare in the world" however is false.

    Agree in general with the "Less Gov't Good" comment but, not so much in relation to healthcare.

    Regardless - Red Establishment loves Big Gov't even more than Blue - and this is not an easy bar to hurdle. https://www.google.ca/search?source....1..gws-wiz.....6..0i131j0i131i67.JXobPWDjE8k

    Apparently you've never been to college. A person can teach at a college
    with only a high school education.
    Nope. Nobody pays for my healthcare.
    Answering that would open the door for harassment from haters on this forum.
    Emphasis on necessarily.

    What subject do you teach in college and what form of continuing education did you have after high school to qualify you to teach in college? And if you are indeed teaching something in college, you are one huge exception. Again, what college do you teach in, and I don't think that the "haters" care. You are avoiding the question.
    The problem with a government that is too small results in the inability to enforce our laws and resolve issues due to lack of personnel. Apparently, I have graduated from college where Doctorates and graduate degrees are required.
    Some "colleges" are not accredited in which case your situation is understandable. How does one teach in at a college level if that person has less knowledge than his/her students?

    Music. College degree and a vast experience.
    It's not a huge exception. But I can understand how someone who's never been to
    college can believe that.
    Where I teach is personal. I don't want some whiny person stalking me or trying to
    make trouble.
    No, the problem is that the government is too big.
    Not required but preferred. That's the norm.
    Fully accredited. I have no idea why any school would hire someone who knows less
    that the students. Are you aware that having a doctorate doesn't mean you are smarter
    that the students?

    So you do have a college education. However, my apologies and I have potter and sculpture friends with no college experience who have taught in college. I did simply didn't place music and courses of that nature in the same category as the college experience.
    I agree that government is too big and government agencies ability to enforce our laws and resolve issues has been compromised
    by a lack of personnel.
